Server was very friendly. I was feeling adventurous, so I tried a Turkish delicacy. Kelle Paća. Broth tasted like Wisconsin Booya. Meat tasted like the parts of a sheep most big city Americans have never tried. I would return to the restaurant, but maybe try a more popular dish with non-Turkish folks.

Amazing friendly service.

We stopped by for a quick lunch and the food was a bit of a mixed bag.

The good was that you can tell they use fresh ingredients with healthy portions...the shawarma needs a bit of a lock and unfortunately the sauce is underwhelming (very watered down) and the rolls could be heated more as the meat wasn't hot and felt almost cold/room temperature. The falafel was really good however and everyone preferred it...

This Turkish restaurant is fantastic! It's conveniently located near Times Square and offers free delivery within a 3-mile radius. I dined here multiple times during our trip to NYC. I particularly enjoyed the Turkish Tea and the Lamb Chops.
